In the weekend it was decided. Anders Bagge makes a record with his "Idol"-favorite, Lars Eriksson.
  And the congratulations from the producer are not going to wait.
  - He is like a mixture of Dylan and Beatles, Anders Bagge said.

  The judge member Anders Bagge got stuck for Lars Eriksson on the audition tour for Idol 2008, and already then he said that he would like to make a record with the guy from Värmland.
  After a meeting with the music producer on Ekerö during the Sunday it's done. It will be a record.
  - Lars has an extremely personal expression. He does what he wants and is a bit of a "revolt-kind", Anders Bagge said about the artist.
  Both of them describe the meeting as a "great meeting" and are both eager to start the cooperation. It is a newly awakened Anders Bagge whom TT Spektra talks with on the Monday afternoon.
  - It got very late yesterday so I fell asleep on the couch. Now I have an extreme pain in my back, he said.
  But except for the pain, Anders Bagge is in a brilliant mood.
  - It was truly very fantastic yesterday. I am absolutely captivated by his texts and songs. So now we'll start with the record.

180 finished songs
  Anders says that the meeting with Lars Eriksson was just as he had thought. Next week they are going to start to rehearse with the band and the 8th of April they will enter the studio and start the recording. But it won't be easy to choose which songs which will be on the record. Lars Eriksson has a pretty unbelieveable repertoire.
  - He brought 180 songs to the meeting, and it wasn't only ideas. It was whole, absoulutely fantastic songs. His music is very charming, Anders Bagge said.

"Want to make a good-looking record"
  Lars Eriksson himself is, of course, very happy about what happened last weekend.
  - It feels great, it's very fun, he said.
  Since "Idol" ended he has taken a break. To keep himself "alive" he has done some performances, and also moved from Karlskoga in Värmland, to Stockholm. He has big expectations on the cooperation with Anders Bagge.
  - I want to make the hell of a nice record, with a good-looking cover that you want to hold in your hand, and that looks cosy. Then if it sells good, that's of course also very fun.
